Modification of These Terms of Use

Wooster reserves the right to change, at any time, at our sole discretion, the Terms under which these Services are offered. You are responsible for regularly reviewing these Terms. Your continued use of the Services constitutes your agreement to all such Terms.

Copyright and Fair Use

In accordance with U.S. copyright law, material that carries a copyright may not be reproduced without express permission from the copyright owner. Permission, however, is not needed when utilization fall within what the U.S. Copyright act of 1976 deems fair use. Additional information about copyright is available through the U.S. Copyright Office.

If a copyright complaint is filed with the College, the material in question will be removed from the College’s website immediately, provided that the complainant sufficiently identifies the copyrighted material and asserts that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.

Appropriate Content

Material hosted on the College of Wooster’s Web servers must not violate state or federal law, or any college policy. Material must not feature obscene, harassing, or discriminatory content. Web Communication has the right to remove any content deemed inappropriate.

All content posted on the College of Wooster’s web servers must be in accordance with the Scot’s Key.

Information Duplication

To facilitate revisions and prevent contradictory information from appearing on the College website, webmasters should not duplicate information already on the College Web site, but rather link to the information on the site of the office primarily responsible for the function or activity. (Example: Quoting at length a campus policy rather than providing a link to the original policy location.)
